"Pablo," Yago called. There were quite a few people at the bar, but Yago managed to get Pablo's attention. Agad siyang lumapit sa amin.

"You're..." Pablo trailed.

"He doesn't even remember your name," Yago whispered in my ear while his eyes were still on Pablo.

Kinurot ko siya sa tagiliran niya, pero wala man lang extra-fats yata 'to sa katawan! He's all muscles! No wonder he managed to shake our wall! "Shut up."

"Aurora," I told Pablo, smiling. He looked really good! Mukha siyang bad boy. I never had a thing for bad boys, but there's something about Pablo that was enticing me. He looked fun. And dangerous. And I wanted something different in my life right now. Puro routine ang meron ako. I wanted something new...

"My friend here," Yago said, draping his arm over my shoulders. "Wants to know if you're single."

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. What the fuck?! Ganoon ka-straight forward?! Walang kwentang wingman 'to!

My head was exploding from what Yago just did na hindi ko napansin ang pagtawa ni Pablo sa sinabi niya. I was already planning on killing Yago instead my head! Bwisit talaga 'to! I didn't know if he was helping me or sabotaging me!

"Not seeing anyone right now," Pablo said.

"Great. I'll leave you two," Yago said, leaving me to fend for myself. Bigla akong nakaramdam ng kaba. Walangya talaga si Yago! Talagang iniwan ako dito right after he said those things! Gusto niya talaga akong patayin sa kaba!

"So... you're single, huh?" Pablo asked, making me blush all over my body.

It was already 7:30 pero wala pang Yago ang nang-iistorbo sa akin. It was unusual kasi sakto talaga na 7am ay nasa unit ko na siya para kumain ng breakfast.

"What?" Yago asked when he opened the door. His hair looked like it's been played with and he was yawning. He was wearing a pajama that hung dangerously low. This asshole really has a nice body! Sa buong buhay ko, ngayon lang ako naka-kita ng ganyang v-line!

"Breakfast?" I asked, trying to avert my attention from his sinful body. I should stop looking at Yago like this, for goodness' sake! There's a line and that line should never be crossed.

"Later. Tulog muna ulit ako," he said. I was about to say na iiwan ko na lang sa unit niya, but he didn't leave me enough time to say that because he shut the door on my face quickly. Weirdo.

Pagbalik ko sa unit, inilagay ko sa tupperware iyong pagkain ni Yago. Nilagay ko muna sa ref iyon. I'd just re-heat it later. I spent the morning cleaning my unit. After that, I took a quick bath before I began to catch up on my readings. Ayoko talaga ng may backlogs. I felt like something's always nagging inside my head.

It was already around 2pm when I heard a knock on my door.

"Grabe ka naman matulog," I said when I opened the door for him. He's fresh from the bath. Basa pa iyong buhok ni Yago. But he was still yawning.

"Where's my food?" he asked, walking around my unit.

"Ref," I simply said. Pumunta roon si Yago para kunin iyong pagkain niya. He went to the dining table and quietly began to eat. It's so unusual. Sobrang tahimik niya! I wanted to ask him what his problem was, but I didn't want to seem like I was intruding. Pansin ko kasi kay Yago, he may share a lot about trivial things, but when it came to things that matter, he's mum.
